    FCA work to settle criminal investigation (1-8-19) update

    Where did I say NOT operable? John.....I agree FCA Should NOT be held accountable for owners actions... Geeze , I tried support NO altercation, but My plenum was done at 40K miles even after several foaming's. I gave in to tuning to shutdown the EGR after much effort to alter its inherent...

    FCA work to settle criminal investigation (1-8-19) update

    Much needs to be considered, 1st now ,when it pays to loyal to the local dealership, In My case they will push through any offer I'M willing to do... they will make it work, FCA has to meet the COC on every vehicle (Certificate of compliance) IMO this may required trade in value Plus...

    FCA work to settle criminal investigation (1-8-19) update

    I think the values will rise again....the 2017-18 buyers are really screwed. a low mileage 2014-16 will bring more. Those emission parts on 2017-18 all end at 50-80K miles, according the settlement those parts+ will be warranty 10 years 120K miles.

    FCA work to settle criminal investigation (1-8-19) update

    Yes, this is correct ,The Settlement in NO way impedes FCA to offer additional incentives. FCA... Ecodiesel's 3.0 MUST meet the COC at time of Purchase, In other words if you don't except the offer you can negotiate a buyback. The offer in many cases is generous, But if you want out of...

    Service Electronic Throttle Control

    If your problem is the intake, no it won't remove P0299. If you delete and replace the plenum, that should cure the P0299 But it goona be spend$$$

    Service Electronic Throttle Control

    Ahhh, just buy 2 ECM/PCM's and before any Dealer visit put some miles on the OEM ECM/PCM, the logger will delete pass usage. We'll since I change My stand on tuning for the 3.0 ,I might as well tell owners how to do it.

    Service Electronic Throttle Control

    I've change My stand on Tuning for the 3.0, in long term ownership it needs to be done....In My other thread My EGR and intake was replaced (BY FCA) " even at 10K miles foaming service" In most cases in long term ownership the EGR and Intake will need replacing at cost of 2-3K$ US.
